I'm not sure why I feel the need to blog right now. There are a million things I want to do before Jason walks through the door. I have to clean up the MESS from decorating and jiggling the Christmas tree around, I have to clean up my mess from the chocolate chip cookies I made, I have to put away boxes, and put supper together....
So I'll get straight to the point. I decorated our tree today! It's BEAUTIFUL! I love the lights from the tree shimmering in our living room. It makes it all look so cozy and warm. We just need a fire place to top things off... but it's not happening. At least not here and not anytime soon.
I fell so blessed lately in so many ways. I love my husband, this ministry, the fellowship we have with other believers here, we have plenty of food, a nice apartment... the list goes on. I keep praying, "God, prepare me for the day when things will seem they're falling apart." Because I know that day will come. I believe I'm understanding more and more how to seek God through the good and bad times. But "bad" times haven't happened for a while. I pray every day for strength to be faithful and to find joy despite whatever my circumstances may be. God is my joy, He is my life, He is my strength. I pray this will be evident ALL the time .
